Project details

What we need
  • A written document that clearly translates a specific organizational or business need into the technical work required to achieve it
What we have in place
  • We currently have a SIS specification, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a project manager who has experience running complex IS implmentations, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,127 , allowing us to Work more efficiently and have access to data that will help drive continuous improvement.

We need to develop a student information system Right now we manage everything on multiple excel spreadsheets access databases and Google Sheets Our xfunctional team is almost complete with a draft of our specifications and we would like someone to review it and help us source 3 - 5 SIS systems that we should consider and help us create a decision-making rubric Someone with background in student information systems would be helpful but not necessary The Executive Director (me) is leading the team and has a lot of experience in project managing complex IS systems
